Keep local media thriving in San Antonio

Hey, San Antonio. You know SATXtoday as the free newsletter in your inbox each morning, packed with the most uplifting and impactful local news. Our team highlights the best of our city — from events and new businesses to exciting developments and the amazing people who call Alamo City home.

We have incredible advertising partners that support our mission to bring only the most positive local news and events to San Antonio, but sustaining a modern media company requires much more. That’s why we’ve created this reader-driven campaign, with a goal to raise $1,000 over the next 10 days. If you’ve enjoyed being subscribed to SATXtoday, found a life-changing concert in our Events section, use our City Guides to plan perfect days with family, or impress your dinner guests with all the details of that new development you read about — we couldn’t be more honored to be part of your life. And we’re calling on you now to help support our mission.

We are part of 6AM City, a hyper-local media company focused on activating communities through daily email newsletters.

A few reminders about who we are:

We curate local news. No matter which news outlet, community organization, small business, or reader breaks the story — the most positive local news and events worth your attention are curated into our daily newsletter. Our dedicated City Editor lives, works, and plays in San Antonio, carrying out our mission to highlight the incredible small businesses, non-profits, and city programs you want to hear about.

We’re committed to maintaining our readers’ trust. Fun fact: Our parent company 6AM City has turned down more than a million dollars in political ads since we started — we’re that serious about our brand promise. We think reading about what’s going on in your city should be a positive experience, not something that rockets your blood pressure before you’ve even started your day.

The truth is, we love what we do. Sharing the most positive local news and events with our readers fuels us every day. If you’ve felt the love for our product too, help us today with a one-time contribution that supports local storytelling.

🏠 Home sweet home-away-from-home

Have you ever wanted to stay in a castle? You can in San Antonio. | Photo via Airbnb

We all need a staycation or a trip to a different city from time to time. Whether you’re a San Antonian feeling a little cooped up or a visitor looking for a special Alamo City experience, picking the perfect home away from home is crucial.

We went looking for unique lodgings around town that showcase that San Antonio spirit. So choose your ideal digs, pack your bags, and get ready for a memorable getaway.

Retreats on the water

Happy Owl Lake House | Canyon Lake
Soak up the sun in a hot tub and clink those wine glasses as you watch the sunset across the lake. This retreat is perfect for the family, and can sleep up to 11 guests.

Birdhouse Cabin | Cibolo
Park the car under your cabin for this river retreat getaway. Unplug and be one with nature as you cruise through the river on your floatie or just dip your feet.

Houses with history

Lambermont Castle | Government Hill
Live your happily ever after for the weekend and stay in a San Antonio historical castle with your one bedroom accommodation. The home was built in 1894 and resembles the castles in Belgium.

Medina River & Pool Hüs | Castroville
This renovated historic cottage features a running well, hot tub, pool, and nature access.

Cabin fever

Safari Tent Cabins | Converse
Always wanted to go camping but don’t own a tent? Look no further than these safari tents that sleeps up to four people. They are located near Cibolo Creek making it one of the easiest ways to cool off during the summer.

Acorn Treehouse at Honey Tree | Fredericksburg
We’ve always dreamed about that big treehouse in our backyard, and now it’s a reality. This hidden gem can sleep two people and is three stories surrounded by trees and plants.
